It still does not work(still layer only on first page in Mk IV). What am I doing wrong?

A typo in pack-lyr.mkiv for the \dodoflushlayer macro.

In MkII a line of the macro is

       \doifnotvalue{\??ll#2\c!position}\v!yes
         {\doifvalue{\??ll#2\c!repeat}\v!yes\!!donecfalse
          \doifvalue{\??ll#2\c!state}\v!repeat\!!donecfalse}%

while in MkIV it's

     \ifx\@@currentlayerposition\v!yes
\edef\@@currentlayerrepeat{\csname\??ll\currentlayer\c!repeat \endcsname}% % \edef\@@currentlayerstate {\csname\??ll\currentlayer\c!state \endcsname}% actually this is already set
       \ifx\@@currentlayerrepeat\v!yes
         \!!donecfalse
       \else\ifx\@@currentlayerstate\v!repeat
         \!!donecfalse
       \fi\fi
     \fi

MkII expects position ≠ yes while MkIV continues only when position = yes what's wrong, you can add \unless before the \ifx and the layer mechanism works.

     \unless\ifx\@@currentlayerposition\v!yes
\edef\@@currentlayerrepeat{\csname\??ll\currentlayer\c!repeat \endcsname}% % \edef\@@currentlayerstate {\csname\??ll\currentlayer\c!state \endcsname}% actually this is already set
       \ifx\@@currentlayerrepeat\v!yes
         \!!donecfalse
       \else\ifx\@@currentlayerstate\v!repeat
         \!!donecfalse
       \fi\fi
     \fi
   \fi
